Steptember is on. Step it Up!
Make every step count
Steptember 2015 just started! With 359 teams all over Canada and 240 teams in Alberta, this charity event is like no other. This is a great opportunity to get active, develop sustainable healthy habits, and to have some friendly competition amongst your friends, family and co-workers. So now is time for you to take 10,000 steps a day until September 29. Over 40 activities can be converted into steps so for example swimming, wheeling a manual wheelchair and yoga all count towards your daily step total. You can find them on the Steptember website. The website also features health and fitness tips from experts and fellow members of the Step Family, as well as loads of useful things like posters, pre-written fundraising emails, and other tips and tricks.
The funds raised this Steptember - $53,000 so far - will help Cerebral Palsy Associations across Canada provide family-centred therapies, life skills programs, equipment and support for people with cerebral palsy and other disabilities. And as a charity that relies heavily on donations to pay for all this life-changing work, every step you take and every cent you make will make a difference.
